Faculty-staff workshops on curriculum scheduled

October 15, 2012

Four more curriculum workshops this month are scheduled
to help faculty and others grasp principles, provisions,
course criteria and outcomes.

This workshop, offered by the Office of the Vice Provost for
Undergraduate Academic Affairs, is designed to respond to attendees' questions
as well as cover essential information. The topics include 120-credit
legislation, Purdue foundational core outcomes, statewide transferable general
education core curriculum, and designing curricula to enhance
mobility/preparation/exploration in the first year as recommended by the
Foundations of Excellence report, says Dale Whittaker, vice provost for
undergraduate academic affairs.
